Tips for Trailer Wiring Harness # C56348 Seeming Too Short for 2016 Hyundai Tucson

Question

Question:

I purchased 56277 wiring harness for 2015 Tuscon Eco. Wiring too short, goes only half way up channel. Only way to reach lights is to hang the converter in channel. Only have 1foot of lead wire from converter. Did I purchase the wrong Harness? Can the converter hang without damage?

The Curt trailer wiring harness part # C56348 that you referenced is a fit for your 2016 Hyundai Tucson but you aren't the first to notice that the harness is a bit too short. We have had a few people leave reviews for this harness stating that it was a bit too short and then offering the solutions that worked for them. I attached pictures of a couple of these for you to check out.
